Arm & Elbow Closed Pulse

Feel the burn! Tone your arms and tighten your core with small, controlled pulses. Quick, effective, and perfect for any fitness level.

Instructions

  1. Starting Position:

    • Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart. Ensure your weight is evenly distributed between both legs.

    • Maintain a slight bend in the knees for stability.

  2. Arm Position:

    • Bring your arms in front of your body and bend your elbows to around 90 degrees.

    • Keep your palms facing each other and your elbows close to your torso.

  3. Movement:

    • Inhale deeply, then exhale as you pulse your arms forward and back while keeping the elbows bent.

    • Aim for small, controlled movements. Make sure your elbows remain close to your body throughout the exercise.

  4. Repetition:

    • Continue pulsing for 15-30 seconds, focusing on keeping your arms engaged without using excessive shoulder movement.

  5. Return to Start:

    • After completing the pulses, relax your arms and return to the starting position.

Tips:

  • Keep your core engaged throughout the exercise to maintain balance.

  • Focus on your breathing; exhale during the movement to maintain control.

  • If you feel any discomfort in your shoulders or elbows, reduce the range of motion.
